SailCat - Mistral AI Chat Client for Sailfish OS

Source: https://github.com/nicosouv/harbour-sailcat

New versions of SailCat (2.x and up) are built by a human developer with the help of AI (Claude, Mistral Vibe) 

If you don't want to use it, feel free not to use it :)

A native Sailfish OS client for Mistral AI, bringing powerful AI conversations directly to your device with a beautiful Silica interface.

What's New in 2.x:
- Image support (vision): attach a photo and let Pixtral or any vision-capable model analyze it
- Dynamic model list: fetched live from the Mistral API, with a quick model-switcher button next to the input field
- System prompt & personas: presets (Concise, Translator, Code assistant) or your own custom instruction
- Generation settings: temperature slider and response length limit
- Message actions: regenerate the last answer, edit and resend a message, pin messages (with a pinned-messages page), copy code blocks separately
- Export conversations as Markdown to Documents, or copy them as text
- Real token tracking: per conversation, per day and per month, straight from the API usage data
- Statistics with charts: activity, token usage, question categories (auto-detected), "who writes more", fun badges (Night Owl, Model Hopper, Conversation Ghost...) and the most frequent words in AI replies
- Improved markdown rendering: protected code blocks with theme-aware colors, strikethrough, safer italics
- UI/UX overhaul: swipe from the chat to reach your conversation history, bottom pulley menu, message timestamps, typing-dots animation, live cover showing the latest answer and mini stats
- Automatic conversation titles and categories generated after the first exchange
- Fully translated: English, French, German, Spanish, Finnish, Italian

Features:
- Real-time streaming responses with Server-Sent Events (SSE)
- All current Mistral chat models, refreshed automatically from the API
- Multilingual interface: English, French, German, Spanish, Finnish, Italian
